The Controversial and Mysterious Starchild Skull

Hydrocephalus skull by El Bibliomata
Starchild Skull

Mexico contains hundreds of years of unique history and bizarre stories. When paranormal experts claimed that they had discovered proof of an alien-human hybrid, the world briefly wondered if such a thing could really be possible. The ‘proof’, which was quickly debunked, was a juvenile skull found in a Mexican cave, and it’s commonly called the Starchild skull.

The skull belongs to paranormal author Lloyd Pye. His books include Everything You Know Is Wrong, Book One: Human Origins and Lloyd Pye: Where Did We Come From? Aliens, UFOs and our Origins. Pye is the main advocate for its alien origins.

The skull was unearthed in 1930, in the Mexican state of Chihuahua. An American woman (some say it was a young girl) discovered two sets of skeletal remains in a mine tunnel near her home. One was the child that this article currently features, while the other was an adult. The woman kept both skulls, and they passed from owner to owner until eventually coming to Pye’s attention in 1999.

The skull in question looked pretty abnormal. The Starchild skull was extremely odd, and was not something that would look to any layperson as particularly human. The identifiable human facial structures were all present, but they were deformed and oddly placed.

Despite dental evidence showing that the skull belonged to a 5-year-old child, the cranial cavity was enormous–larger in volume than a normal adult’s brain. The bones bulged out grotesquely to accommodate this extra space, squeezing the facial features together. The eye orbits were oval and very shallow, and the frontal sinus structures, normally situated right above the brow ridge, were missing completely.

The mysterious circumstances of discovery and the bizarre malformations of the skull has raised some fascinating questions. Pye claimed that the skull could only belong to the offspring of an extraterrestrial and a human. The likelihood of a child surviving with so many malformations of the skull, is slim; they would die at birth or in utero. Yet this child lived until the age of five.

Pye’s website, The Starchild Project, promoted the skull as obvious proof of alien life and interbreeding. Pye apparently consulted fifty different experts, none of whom were able to explain the Starchild’s appearance as a natural disfigurement. He challenged anyone to tell him how the skull could possibly be human.

Neurologist and skeptic Steven Novella took up the challenge. He provided a natural (and Earth-bound) reason for the deformities: hydrocephalus. This congenital condition occurs when too much cerebrospinal fluid accumulates inside the brain, causing swelling as the brain is pushed outward. In adults, this swelling is fatal unless the pressure is relieved. But the skull bones of young children have not yet fused, and the skull can enlarge to accommodate the buildup. Over time, untreated hydrocephalus would cause exactly the deformities seen in the Starchild skull. Further genetic testing showed that the child could only have come from two human parents, as it had completely normal X and Y chromosomes.

Novella’s report, along with several other scientific studies, confirmed to the scientific community that the Starchild was a hoax. Pye and other believers still dispute the claims, but the larger scientific community moved on to other puzzles. So the skull remains a curious case of wishful thinking and fervent belief. It’s a remarkable story for a Mexican child whose name and origin is still unknown.
